Constituency Surgeries are a great way to meet your MP face-to-face to discuss any issue or concern. Do keep an eye out for details of my next surgery; including my Summer Tour across Mid Leicestershire!

✈️Confidence in our immigration system is at an all time low. Those who have overstayed illegally continue to undermine migrants who have followed the rules in securing their settled status. My view is clear: those here illegally MUST be removed; no ifs, no buts…
